Photography Class

Well, I talked Cayla in to going to a photography class with me. It was very last minute, that is the way we roll! This is going to be a fun class!  The first class was June 16th and the second the 23rd. We do have homework.

Our first assignment was pretty simple. But, it was so stinking hot outside!!! I kept opening the door and seeing what was close I could catch a picture of!!! The pictures that we all turned in were pretty good.  He did ask us to try and act like we did not know anything even if we did. He likes for us to see our progression as the class goes along.

One lady said that all she has is a Barbie camera and her daughter( who is taking the class with her, and talked her into going with her) won’t share hers! LOL  They are so funny!!!

Cayla emailed her pictures to him as she was leaving to go to the second class….and he ragged her about that, we all laughed and she did too!!!

We were supposed to take the pictures during this week if at all possible. I did turn in a couple taken within the last two months and I did confess to it!!! Another lady turned in a couple that her daughter took…lol! And another said she needed to confess on a couple of hers too!!! Even the instructor used a couple of pictures that a previous class had taken!!! We all cracked up! He said that at the next class he was going to put a podium up so we could all just take a moment for confession!

I did good in that I did not adjust my photo’s. Just cropped them as he recommended! He asked that we turn in eight pictures. We all did, next time we only have to do five! Here are the eight I turned in!

 

 

Fun times and a thank-you to Cayla for going and THANK-YOU to everyone who helps keep “Little Man” so she can go. I really liked her pictures that she turned in, they were cute. She has a knack for this!

4-wheeler riding

I always ride on the back of the 4-wheeler with Kylie, to make sure she stays safe…lol! She is so funny. She will ride a minute..stop…look around…decide where she wants to go…then she will talk about this, that and such! She will talk about how Papa needs to get this done and that. Like, move that pile of dirt from over there to here.  Or smooth the road out, or trim that tree limb. One day,  I guess she was frustrated with him and she said, “I am going to be the boss from now on.”  Guess that sums that up!

TV Interview

Well, after talking on the radio yesterday…..a television station is calling, wanting an interview with this farmer that I know!!! LOL!!! Get ur  done!!!

You will just have to sign in, I think!

Settings are going back to private, if you want or need to view my blog....let me know and I will add you...if you are not on here!

Isabella

I had the pleasure of keeping Isabella today. Her Mom needed to study.

We went to the barn and visited with Papa for a little while. Then came back home, it is so hot!!!

We played and rocked and ate and changed a few diapers. I put her in the tub and gave her a bath.  I asked her what the dog said. She just looked at me, then I started to bark like a dog and she laughed! No response to  the the cow sound or the cat, but she laughed at the dog bark and tried to bark herself! Too cute!

Then it was time to go to sleep and take a nap, so we rocked and sang “Night Night Baby Go to Sleep”. A song made up by WB. We sang it to all of our kids and now they sing it to theirs and Cole sings it to Molly, his dog…..and she thinks she is part human!!!

Labor Issues

As Isabella and I were visiting with Papa at his barn, yesterday. He received a phone call from Ken Parsons. He was listening to a talk show with Chris Beckham and WB’s name kept coming up as the Labor Department was quoting him from where they had called a few weeks ago. Ken told him he should call Chris, he gave him the number and he called him! I told him to try and be nice!!! LOL! 

He was nice and firm!!! Deland and Bonnie called and asked if he would come and guest preach at their church, because he seemed to be doing a good job of preaching on the radio!!! LOL!!!

Believe me, this is not want he wants to do. But, when someone is interfering with your livelihood you means to make a living….you have to stand up.

Governor Deal said that the paroles should be the ones to pick our crops. Well, that is fine and dandy….if you do not live on your farm. I can throw a softball easy to the field beside my house.

Do you want them that close to your family? Your daughters, your grandbabies??? Does he want them at the Governor’s Mansion??? I am going to ask him, I will assure you…if I get the chance!

Funny Grands

Casey and Cayla and their families came over. WB cooked, he is so good about that…I do the cleaning! After we ate, the girls put the two youngest on the quilt to play.

Miss Isabella was all about taking all of the toys, and they were all Cayden’s. It was so funny, she had this look like she was on a serious mission. But, she also needed time to chew on them. Boy was she busy. If she saw him look at one,  she would crawl over and start hitting at the toy, with her hand, until she got it close to her.

Funny thing is….he did not care one little bit! He would pick one up, chew it and just look at her and smile. He just wanted to look at her and talk and smile! 

Winston was so proud to see the babies and his girls. He has been working so hard and not been able to take time to visit!

Bart and Casey left and went home early. WB went to bed. I stayed up with the night owls! LOL! We  watched some tv and I got some Cayden sugars. Cayla went to sleep -as usual, Ryan has to stay on his night schedule so we stayed up and watched Ice Truckers…until I just had to go to bed!!!

Thanks for taking time to spend a little time with us, we enjoyed it.

WB, the wings were very good!!!

Muslims, India, Hispanic’s

Why is it that we Americans do not have a problem with Muslims living here, they want to kill us and blow us up. But we fuss about the hard working class! 

The people from India have been loaned American money for hotels and convenience stores….they have several years to pay it back. When they can’t, they sell it to another family member.  And we sit and say nothing!

But then, we have a group that are willing to do hard labor, work for us….and pay taxes that they can not get back…and we gripe about it????

I just do not get it???

Now, I do know that not all would fit into the mold above…..but they are here and it does go on.

We act like it does not…wake up America, buy from America not other countries. It is time to support ourselves!!!

I am sick and tired of being sick and tired----one sinus infection after another!!!
